Chapter 176 Going Beyond Limits, Taste Of Death
"Got you!!!" But instead of faltering, Diablo smiled as he pointed at her head and unleashed two skills in succession, causing Krishna to feel the hint of death for the first time in a long while.
[Doomed Fortune(Extra) - Bring about the failure of a certain aspect or a moment. Can affect anything, whether people, skills or even a process of a Universe being born to fail. Useless against beings of a higher existence, or those of a stronger realm]
This skill, as it\'s definition says, caused her to miss her target and let her fist pass by his face by a small degree. At this moment, their posture was a bit ambiguous and daring.
As if Krishna was about to fall into his arms for a hug, while waiting for a perfect moment to seal the deal with a kiss. But such a thing didn\'t happen at all. Time felt like it had stopped as they were falling.
[True One(Unique) - Once per day, can summon power that transcends your level and has a 50% to kill your opponent. The stronger the opponent\'s Realm, the smaller the chances by half, and the weaker the opponent\'s Realm, the higher the chance by double. Has the Extra Skills.....]
Perhaps it was her unlucky day, but Krishna felt like she would die completely when his hand touched her face. But unfortunately, she was not in a position she could move or wish that he would miss.
It was a checkmate. And honestly, Krishna was not angry. Not only because she knew that a certain cute someone would not let her die, but because all was fair in Love and War. But there was no Love here, just purely War.
"God\'s Grace." And indeed, suddenly an ethereal voice disrupted the \'peaceful\' moment, as an auspicious glow covered Krishna\'s body for a moment.
Her life and death, wew dictated not only by Diablo\'s fist, but by the two words that drifted out at that very moment.
[Godhood Ladder(Unique) - People close to you have a high chance to experience a one in a lifetime rare opportunity twice or thrice. Once per week, can bring unprecedented fortune to oneself that affects any being either than higher existence than yourself. Has the Extra Skills.....]
Diablo\'s fist touched Krishna\'s face, causing an unprecedented deadly force to try and blast her head from her neck. But unfortunately for him, his luck turned to misfortune, and Krishna\'s misfortune was turned to luck.
By a stroke of luck, her whole body was sent back along with the force, saving her head from being separated from her neck.
Midway, Lulu caught her and they were both sent flying away. Diablo also fell on the ground face up, completely caught off guard, \'What happened, what fucking happened?! my chances were a 100%!!!\'
He stood up and looked far away, towards the two women helping each other up. He grinded his teeth together in anger and finally activated a divine skill of his own.
[War Demon Manifestation(Divine/Ultimate) - Be driven by madness and murder. Instincts and perception will be altered to be perfect for Killing and countering any non-God opponents. Become a killing machine at the cost of a chance to lose your mind. Affects even beings of a higher existence or far stronger than yourself. Has the Unique Skills.....]
Without carrying about limitation, he directly used the skill. Baleful aura burst out of his body, covering his body in red mist that obscured his appearance.
His skin turned pale white, black cracks spread around his eyes, his lips turned purple, his sclera also became black while his pupil became golden. His claws grew longer and became black as well, his hair also rose up like furious snakes.
"I\'ll... Kill... kill... KILL YOU!!!" He roared in a hoarse, bestial-like tone. His presence was nothing like a Demigod anymore, for a moment, it was as if he was... a War Beast.
RAAAAAARRGGHHH!!!
With a powerful roar, he lightly kicked the floor, instantly appearing before Lulu in an instant. Lulu didn\'t even have the time to be surprised as death gently, and lovingly stroked her chin.
And with supernatural movement beyond any mortal flexibility, Krishna luckily managed to save Lulu by pulling her aside, using up her second stroke of luck for the week. But Diablo didn\'t want to let go either.
He swept his other hand at her, but she tripped midway saving Lulu again, avoiding the sharp attack while using up her last luck of the week. The next attack... would be a surekill.
For the first time, as if their minds were connected, the girl\'s coordinated perfectly without a sound.
Silent and fluent.
The moment Lulu touched the ground, she used an Unique skill to cause the earth to shoot up an earth spike towards the chest of Diablo. Midway, it transformed into a glowing pike.
[Elemental Transmutation(Unique) - Can transmute chemical elements changing any element, whatever its state: solid, liquid, gas, or plasma, and interchange their forms midway. Has the Extra Skills....]
[Ability: Law of Life(Passive) - A Unique+ ability that bestows the R9-Perfect law of life that dictates all life within Reality to the user. Life Affinity increased to the peak, any being with R9 and lower ranked laws are helpless against you, damage against dark-type beings increased by 1000%]
Thanks to the ability of her artifact, the metal pike was a deadly weapon for a demon. But Diablo was a True Demon Lord, not your ordinary Demon after all.
And something like ten times the damage was nothing to him... But, that\'s where Krishna comes into equation.
[Divine Soul(Unique+) - Nigh Divine. Support Ability. Can transcend one Unique ability to an anti-divine Divine ability that can severely damage semi-divine and divine beings. Has the Extra Skills.....]
Thus alone... changed the course of Lulu\'s actions, and what value it had.
A combination of two chosens, using two Unique skills and one Unique+ skill. The combo was nothing short of Deadly to someone like Diablo.
The golden glowing pike easily pieced through Diablo\'s chest, completely destroying three of his four hearts in the process.
Everything turned to silence. Diablo pulled himself away from them in difficulty. The women didn\'t chase after him as they knew what a cornered dog could do. Plus, they won by luck.
"I\'m not... dead yet... I haven\'t... lost yet..." Diablo said incoherently as he stood up with difficulty. Krishna and Lulu pulled up their gaurds and retreated back slightly.
"Ah, Argh...Aaaarrrgggh!!! Why? Why?! Why don\'t you just realise your place and just BOW!!!! To me. To True Royalty. Me. Me!! ME!!." He roared out loud and thrust his own hand into his chest, pulling out his almost damaged remaining heart.
Only Demon Gods could move their hearts within their bodies as they please, True Demon Lords could not. Thus, all their hearts were still clustered up together in their chest.
"I\'ll... make you... bow, by, force..." He shattered his heart and looked at the two women with a crazed smile, sending chills down their spines. He then added, "For I am Supreme."
[Dead Heart(Divine) - Can sacrifice a heart in order to escape sure-kill death and be reborn with all five hearts of a True Demon Lord. Usable only once per month. Has the Unique Skills.....]
The blood from his heart didn\'t splatter everywhere. It first froze in the air and then covered his hand, then his arm, to his shoulder then the whole body in just seconds.
Both Krishna and Lulu felt like something was not right, they felt uneasy and pulled back even more. Lulu sent a burst of flames towards the carcass while she was at it.
Boom.
The small explosion with heat greate that the sun\'s clouded the place around Diablo with dust and smoke, making it hard to see his figure at all. But it did minimal damage.
"I don\'t like where this is going." Krishna said and took up a fighting stance, a pair of golden gloves on her fists. Lulu nodded and floated above ground.
Suddenly a burst of laughter rang out from the smoke, "Hahahaha... Hahaha... It\'s too late, it\'s too fucken late!!! I\'ll make you bow, no, I\'ll make you beg. Yes, I want to see those pretty faces begging for their lives right below my feet. Right, where, they, belong!!"
"...Tsk." Krishna clicked his tongue and was about to rush over, but Lulu managed to stop her in time. "Relax. Don\'t let his taunts get to you. That\'s what he intends for after all."
"Oh? You over there, little elf, I suddenly don\'t like your expression. Heh I wonder what expression you make when your man is above you? Hahaha, maybe bitchy? Or slutty?"
"Whatever it is, I bet it aren\'t that disgusting. I\'m pretty sure it\'s not that... unsightly!!!"
He suddenly appeared before Lulu, whose expression was a bit twisted due to rage. But all that was replaced by surprise as she realized that she could barely respond.
"Hahaha... die!!!" He shouted, along with his fist flying towards her pretty, but confused face.
Bang!!
